Upgrade press too what?

[Elkeater]

hey guys I'm currently looking to upgrade my press. I've been using a Lee Challenger press for about 8 years but I'm thinking I want an upgrade. What presses are you all running? I would like to keep things simple with a single stage press. I reload for 5.56 through .300 Win mag.

Only thing I have experience with is my RCBS Rock Chucker IV. Wouldn't trade it for anything.

There is another recent thread in here asking the same.

Maybe do a forum search.

There was some good comparison vids in there

Ya I thought there was but couldn't find it with the search function. I'll have to try again.

Rock Chucker IV for me as well since 2007. A year or so ago I wanted to see if there was a better press out there and the top results I found consistently were the Forester Co-Ax and Rock Chucker IV.

I remember it because I posted in it so just looked in my history

Have a look at the vid in post #28

Some good info in there.

Good luck

Edit: If I had my time again I would be buying that RCBS Summit press, but I have a Rock chucker & partner press & happy with them...…………………..for now

I use a Rockchucker from the 70's. If I were to change I would get one of the "O" frame Redding presses.

Been reloading with old rock chuker press. Got a Forster co-ax and simply love it.

I somewhat recently bought a Forster co-ax and have not regretted anything about it. The way the dies and she'll holder floats is nice and it builds true ammunition. The more I use it the more I like it.

Mid 70"s Rock Chucker single stage going strong Never any problems ,newest is a 5/12yr old Big Boss Redding it's been great , with two presses less die changes , cheers !

I have a RCBS turret a Redding T7 and a Forster Co-Ax I like the Co-Ax the best but the T7 is very good also. The RCBS served me well for many years and the CS from RCBS has been great when I whore out parts they would send new ones no problem.

Ok so it looks like RCBS rock chucker and Forster COAX is on the list. How bout Frankford arsenal M Press? Anyone have one of those.
